Interview with Ing. JAN JAROLÍM, mayor of Prague 9 district

Therefore I was pleased that this international exhibition will take place in our ninth Prague district. I expect it to

offer and interesting and inspiring program. Without doubt there will be numerous original foreign collections as

well as expositions of well known Czech authors. As far as I know, there are also many workshops, sales

possibilities and presentations. I believe that these will enrich the numerous supporters of the textile techniques

and will be inspirational for future projects.

How can the city district profit from an international textile exhibition?

I assume that it will bring to our district a large number of both foreign and domestic visitors, from which may

benefit our hoteliers and retailers. However, I see its biggest contribution in its cultural and social importance.

Thanks to the events’ promotion, the image of Prague 9 District will be enriched and increased.

Patchwork brings to Prague 9 quarterly meetings of Bohemia Patchwork Club and thousands of domestic and

foreign visitors on a daily basis. What can your city district offer to them?

There may be various options for further cooperation. For example in some of our facilities – art therapy in health

care or other activities in our cultural and maternal center Knoflík, and of course, schools or the Retirement

Home. I also have in mind potential exhibitions in the Gallery “9” etc. As a dynamic locality we offer our visitors

all the services needed. By us, they will always find understanding and acceptance.

For the professional public, Prague 9 clearly is the “patchwork” address, the Prague Patchwork Meeting

Exhibition in the Wellness Hotel Step, which will take place from 9th to 11th April 2010 is however intended for

general public as well. Will you invite the citizens for the largest exhibition of textile techniques in the CEE

region?

I will invite them with pleasure. That is why I decided to shelter the whole event. I would also like to add that the

topic of this years’ competition collection is PATWAYS and that in the sense of communication linking, evolution,

searching and knowledge. Which is nowadays, when controversy becomes a national “sport” and political

arguments are a boring trend, very necessary. I personally prefer searching common solutions, listening and

considering different opinions. That seems to me as a constructive way for a future development.

What do words patchwork and quilting say to you?

Actually nothing until recently. But when I received the first email with the

information that the traditional exhibition should be held in our city district for the

first time and the organizers asked me to shelter it, I could not hesitate of course. I

researched the web page of Prague Patchwork Meeting and other professional

links, including foreign ones and I have to admit I am very fond of this art. I also

questioned my wife and daughter, who knew exactly what’s going on, making me

feel a bit ashamed.

Why did a mayor – man decided to support a “female” hobby?

It probably is a female hobby, but as I stated, many of the quilts raised my interest.


CZECH PATCHWORK STARS – Klára Beránková

I have learnt about patchwork from my friend and colleague Saša back in 2005. At first it was just a way to kill time

by hand sewing of balloons. It was first later when I made two quilts by hand and finally decided to purchase the

sewing machine. This was connected to buying basic tools and clothes. I have entered the Spolek Litomyšl (Local

Patchwork Club in Litomyšl) right after it was established and I am very proud of this membership. Meeting

women who were so much more advanced has inspired and motivated me.

The start seemed rather quick - every month a new technique. Today, we know most of the beginners’ as well as

advanced quilting techniques, so it is time to for new patterns and styles. Mrs. Štěrbová has accepted our

invitation to Litomyšl and we were all looking forward to the workshop “Rhapsody” by Ricky Tims. I was truly

amazed. Until then I only made quilts following given patterns, with very few alternations. But this was something

completely else. Even creating the layout is completely unique! I started working straight away. A bit nervous

about mastering the project, I sticked to a smaller size.

Rather demanding sewing is compensated by the numerous application possibilities. Pure joy. In the summer a

friend from Virginia (quilter herself) visited me and seeing the quilt, she immediately made pictures promising to

show it to Ricky Tims next time she’d see him in a workshop. This January an e-mail from Ricky arrived. My knees

were trembling a bit. His congratulation on mastering “Rhapsody” cheered me up. We exchanged a few e-mails

and from this great, untouchable and abstract idol in our field suddenly became concrete person. Since he is a

passionate musician, I managed to attract him to Litomyšl and we can hope, that he will squeeze visiting the Czech

Republic and Litomyšl in his busy schedule. On his webpages, I have watched his show intended for hundreds of

quilters, a great experience. For us a bit unusual, but definitely a great atmosphere and a lot of experiences!

Maybe we will have the honor on day as well!

Many ideas to all of us and the best regards, Klára Beránková.

3Prague Patchwork Meeting April 2010

Dear colleagues,

As a native from Ostrava, Czech Republic, I do not really have a

lot of chances to meet in person with many of you; therefore I

am glad to take the opportunity to introduce myself to you

through this newsletter.

I have firstly encountered Patchwork in 2008 when I have

decided to pursue this topic for my diploma thesis on the College

of Education at University of Ostrava. Until than, I have only seen

Patchwork on rare occasions, and I did not really know what

challenge am I about to master. Even my thesis mentor told me,

how crazy I am to tackle this topic. Fortunately, I have studied

vocational school of clothes and fashion craft, and, therefore, I

have no problems to understand and figure out how a piece of

dress or other textile product is done. And then, while I was

visiting the Patchwork exhibition in the community center K-trio

in Ostrava, I have meet Jana Štěřbová, a real Patchwork expert,

and asked her to supervise my diploma thesis.

Regarding my Patchwork creations, I rather turn to the modern

approach – the art quilts. I really like to arrange surfaces of those

quilts and the never ending hunt for new ideas on the modern

interpretation of Patchwork, the original field of functional

needlecraft. On the other hand, I extremely appreciate and

respect the tailors of classical Patchwork who I admire for their

precise approach to the work.

In times, when I do not work on Patchwork, I am usually occupied

with the production of hand-made jewelry; batik silk scarf,

handkerchiefs, and ties; handbags, and so on. I like to work with

decoupage, ceramics, or encaustics. And because all my creations

started to uncontrollably pile up in our living room, I have

decided to found a creative center ‘STOJAN’ (‘easel’ in Czech) in

Ostrava – Mariánské Hory. ‘Stojan’ offers an extensive menu of

creative and art courses for anyone who enjoys relaxation and

creativity at the same time.

Apart from the creative courses, ‘Stojan’ also offers a wide range

of art and creative requisites and materials such as beads and

jewelry components; textile, silk, glass, porcelain, wood, and

metal paints; acrylic and tempera paints; various types of flat and

round brushes, baking plasticine Cernit (an equivalent to Fimo);

enamel powder; various decorative pieces and many gift items

which I produce.

A lot of these art and creative requisites – mostly textile ones –

can be found in my store at the Prague Patchwork Meeting in

Step hotel from 9th to 11th April 2010. It will be my pleasure to

meet you all there!

Sincerely, Your Tereza Janáčková and the creative center

‘Stojan’
